Recipe Directions
BARBECUE SAUCE:

PORK SANDWICHES:
- SMOKE pork shoulder in a hot smoker for 3 to 5 hours at 210° F (internal meat temperature of 150°F). Remove, and wrap in aluminum foil. Refrigerate overnight.
- REMOVE excess fat from pork. Using two forks, shred remaining meat into a large bowl. Mix in barbecue sauce.
- BROWN 2 slices of buttered sourdough bread in a skillet or griddle over medium heat. Place a slice of cheese on each slice. Top with ⅛ of pulled pork mixture, a second slice of cheese and another slice of buttered bread. Turn sandwich over when bottom slice has browned and brown the other side.
